Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, specifically to a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material which causes less fluctuation in the photographic processing activity of a processing solution in continuously processing the light-sensitive material and which has less unevenness in image density caused by fluctuation of processing and excellent color reproducibility and sharpness. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, particularly a color light-sensitive material for photographing, there is required a light-sensitive material having good color reproducibility and sharpness and exhibiting no adverse affect on the photographic processing activity of a processing solution in continuously processing the light-sensitive material. The novel DIR coupler in which a dye formed from the coupler is eluted in a developing solution after a color development was proposed in JP-A-58-162949 (the term "JP-A" as used herein means an unexamined published Japanese patent application) and JP-A-63-37350 for the purpose of improving a sharpness, a color reproducibility, and a light-sensitive material storing performance. The sharpness, color reproducibility and light-sensitive material storing performance were certainly improved by using these DIR couplers. However, there was involved the problem that the application only of these couplers markedly increased the fluctuation in the activity of a developing solution. Further, there are proposed in, for example, U.S. Patent 4,782,012, and JP-A-57-151944, JP-A-3-198048, and JP-A-3-228048, light-sensitive materials which contain DIR couplers having structures similar to those of the couplers of the present invention represented by Formula (I) and Formula (II) and have improved color reproducibility, sharpness and storing performance of the light-sensitivity, and which are designed so that a development inhibitor eluted in a processing solution is deactivated therein to thereby allow the adverse affects to be less liable to be exerted to the processing activity in a continuous processing. Certainly, an interlayer effect and an edge effect were improved by using these DIR couplers and the color reproducibility and sharpness were improved to some extent. However, the effects thereof remained still insufficient. Further, the adverse effect to the processing activity in the continuous processing was decreased, but in the case where a recent color developing solution having a reduced replenishing amount was used, there still remained the problem that the fluctuation in the activity of the developing solution was still larger. EP-A-0 577 184, having priority and publication dates of 24th June 1992 and 5th January 1994, discloses a colour photographic element containing a wash-out coupler and a non-wash-out coupler which are both capable of releasing a photographic development inhibitor. EP-A-0 522 371 discloses a photographic development inhibitor-releasing coupler capable upon oxidative coupling of forming a dye capable of being washed out of a photographic element upon processing. EP-A-0 204 175 discloses a photographic material in which one colour sensitive layer includes: (a) a compound which upon reaction with an oxidised developing agent forms a compound which on oxidation forms a development inhibitor; (b) a compound which upon reaction with an oxidized developing agent forms a precursor of a compound which on oxidation forms a development inhibitor; and (c) a compound which on reaction with an oxidized developing agent releases a development inhibitor. EP-A-0 412 532 discloses a method for processing a photographic material using restricted amounts of colour developing solution by selecting particular bleaching agents and organic acids to be present in the bleaching solution. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A first object of the present invention is to provide a light-sensitive material having less fluctuation fatigue in the photographic performances of a processing solution in continuously processing the light-sensitive material. A second object of the present invention is to provide a light-sensitive material in which an unevenness in image densty is less liable to generate in the processing. A third object of the present invention is to provide a light-sensitive material having excellent sharpness, color reproducibility and graininess altogether. A fourth object of the present invention is to provide a light-sensitive material having less fluctuation in the photographic performances of a processing solution and excellent sharpness and color reproducibility even in processing with less replenishing amount of a color developing solution. The present invention aims to achieve the above objects by providing a method of processing a silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material comprising: a support, and provided thereon at least one red-sensitive emulsion layer, at least one green-sensitive emulsion layer, and at least one blue-sensitive emulsion layer, and containing a coupler represented by the following Formula (I) and a coupler represented by the following Formula (II) : Formula (I) A 1 - (TIME) a - DI Formula (II) A 2 - (TIME) a - DI wherein A 1 represents a group having an anti-diffusion group and releasing (TIME) a - DI upon a reaction with an oxidation product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent compound; A 2 represents a group having no anti-diffusion group and releasing (TIME) a - DI upon a reaction with an oxidation product of an aromatic primary amine developing agent; TIME represents a timing group which splits from DI after separating from A; DI represents a development inhibitor which is substantially deactivated after eluting with a developing solution; and a represents 1 or 2, and when a is 2, the two TIME's are the same or different; said method comprising subjecting said light-sensitive material to a color development processing in which a color developing solution is replenished with a color development replenishing solution in an amount of 600 ml or less per m 2 of the light-sensitive material.

DI eluted in the developing solution is decomposed to substantially loose its development inhibiting action. The decomposition speed thereof is 30 seconds to 2 hours, preferably 2 minutes to 1 hour in terms of a half life. An alkali hydrolysis, a decomposition by a reaction with a chemical species (hydroxylamine and others) contained in a developer, or a deactivation by a substitution reaction of an adsorbing group (a mercapto group contained in DI) is representative as a decomposition reaction. Particularly preferred is the case in which at least one of the substituents contained in DI has an ester bond. For example, the following examples can be enumerated as DI: Next, the group represented by TIME will be explained below. The group represented by TIME may be anyone as long as it is a group capable of splitting from DI after splitting from A 1 or A 2 in a development processing. There can be enumerated, for example, a group utilizing a cleavage reaction of hemiacetal, described in U.S. Patents 4,146,396, 4,652,516, and 4,698,297; a timing group causing a cleavage reaction by utilizing an intermolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction, described in U.S. Patents 4,248,962, 4,847,185, 4,912,028, and 4,857,440; a timing group causing a cleavage reaction by utilizing an electron transfer reaction, described in U.S. Patents 4,409,323, 5,034,311, 5,055,385, and 4,421,845; a group causing a cleavage reaction by utilizing the hydrolysis reaction of iminoketal, described in U.S. Patent 4,546,073; and a group causing a cleavage reaction by utilizing a hydrolysis reaction of ester, described in GP-A-2626317. There can be enumerated as an example in which two TIME's are combined (when a in Formula (I) or (II) is 2), the timing groups described in U.S. Patents 4,861,701, 5,026,628, and 5,021,322, EP-A-499279 and EP-A-438129. TIME may be a timing group releasing two DI's, and the timing group described in EP-A-464612 can be enumerated as the example thereof. TIME is bonded to A 1 or A 2 via a hetero atom contained -in TIME, preferably an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom or a nitrogen atom. Preferred is the case in which at least one of the TIME's used in Formula (II) contains an anti-diffusion group. In this case, TIME contains a substituent having a total carbon number of 8 to 40, preferably 10 to 22. The following Formula (T-1), (T-2) or (T-3) can be enumerated as preferred TIME: Formula (T-1) *-W-(X=Y) j -C(R 21 )R 22 -** Formula (T-2) *-W-CO-** Formula (T-3) *-W-LINK-E-** In the above formulas, * represents the position for bonding to A 1 or A 2 in Formula (II); ** represents the position for bonding to DI or TIME (when a is plural); W represents an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, or =N-R 23 ; X and Y each represents a substituted or unsubstituted methine group or a nitrogen atom; j represents 0, 1 or 2; and R 21 , R 22 and R 23 each represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent, wherein when X and Y represent a substituted methine, there may be either the case in which a cyclic structure is formed by a combination of any of the substituents of the substituted methine, R 21 , R 22 and R 23 (for example, a benzene ring or a pyrazole ring), or the case in which such the cyclic structure is not formed. In Formula (T-3), E represents an electrophilic group, and LINK represents a linkage group sterically linking W and E so that they can be subjected to an intermolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction. Most preferred as TIME is that represented by Formula (T-1). Specific examples are, for example, the following ones: Specific representative examples of the coupler used in the present invention represented by Formula (I) will be shown below, but the present invention is not limited thereto: Next, specific examples of the coupler represented by Formula (II) will be shown below, but the present invention is not limited thereto: The couplers represented by Formula (I) and Formula (II) can be synthesized according to the methods described in U.S. Patent 4,782,012, and JP-A-57-151944, JP-A-58-162949, JP-A-60-128444, JP-A-63-37350, JP-A-3-198048, JP-A-3-228048, JP-A-4-251843, JP-A-4-278942, JP-A-4-279943, JP-A-4-280247, and JP-A-313750, and the methods described in the literatures and patents cited therein. The couplers represented by Formula (I) and Formula (II) can be emulsified and dispersed by the same method as that applied to a conventional coupler, which will be described later and then can be added to a light-sensitive material. The coupler represented by Formula (I) is added preferably to an infrared-sensitive emulsion layer. A 1 of Formula (I) is represented preferably by (Cp-6), (Cp-7) and (Cp-8), and (Cp-8) is particularly preferred. The coupler represented by Formula (II) is added preferably to a green-sensitive emulsion layer and/or a blue- sensitive emulsion layer. The addition amounts of the couplers represented by Formula (I) and Formula (II) each are 1.0×10 -5 to 0.30 g/m 2 , preferably 1.0×10 -4 to 0.20 g/m 2 , and more preferably 1.0×10 -3 to 0.10 g/m 2 of the photographic material. The light-sensitive material of the present invention may comprise on a support at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, at least one green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer and at least one red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer, and there are specifically no limits to the number and order of the silver halide emulsion layers and non-light-sensitive layers. One typical example is a silver halide photographic light-sensitive material having on a support at least one light-sensitive layer unit comprising a plurality of the silver halide emulsion layers having substantially the same color sensitivity but different photographic speeds, wherein the light-sensitive layer unit has a spectral sensitivity to any of blue light, green light and red light. In a multi-layer silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material, the light-sensitive layer units are usually provided in the order of a red-sensitive layer unit, a green-sensitive layer unit and a blue-sensitive layer unit from the support side. According to purposes, however, the above order may be different, or there can be taken an arrangement order in which a layer having a different light sensitivity is interposed between the layers having the same color sensitivity. Various non-light-sensitive layers such as an intermediate layer may be provided between the above silver halide light-sensitive layers and on the uppermost layer or lowest layer. The above intermediate layer may contain the couplers and DIR compounds described in JP-A-61-43748, JP-A-59-113438, JP-A-59-113440, JP-A-61-20037, and JP-A-61-20038 and may further contain an anti-color mixing agent as usually used. In the plural silver halide emulsion layers constituting the respective light-sensitive layer units, there can preferably be used a two layer structure consisting of a high-speed emulsion layer and a low-speed emulsion layer, as described in German Patent 1,121,470 or British Patent 923,045. Usually, they are preferably provided so that the speeds become lower in order to the support. A non-light-sensitive layer may be provided between the respective silver halide emulsion layers. Further, a low-speed layer may be provided on the side farther from the support and a high-speed layer may be provided on the side closer to the support, as described in JP-A-57-112751, JP-A-62-200350, JP-A-62-206541, and JP-A-62-206543. There can be provided as a specific example thereof, the layers from the side farthest from the support in the order of a low-speed blue-sensitive layer (BL)/a high-speed blue-sensitive layer (BH)/a high-speed green-sensitive layer (GH)/a low-speed green-sensitive layer (GL)/a high-speed red-sensitive layer (RH)/a low-speed red-sensitive layer (RL), or the order of BH/BL/GL/GH/RH/RL, or the order of BH/BL/GH/GL/RL/RH. Further, the layers can be provided from the side farthest from the support in the order of a blue-sensitive layer/GH/RH/GL/RL, as described in JP-B-55-34932 (the term JP-B'' as used herein means an examined Japanese patent publication). The layers can also be provided from the side farthest from the support in the order of a blue-sensitive layer/GL/RL/GH/RH, as described in JP-A-56-25738 and JP-A-62-63936.

Also, in the case where the layers are composed of such three layers as having different speeds, the layers having the same color sensitivity may be provided from the side farthest from the support in the order of a middle speed light-sensitive emulsion layer/a high speed light-sensitive emulsion layer/a low speed light-sensitive layer, as described in JP-A-59-202464. In addition to the above, the layers may be provided in the order of a high speed emulsion layer/a low speed emulsion layer/a middle speed emulsion layer, or the order of a low speed emulsion layer/a middle speed emulsion layer/a high speed emulsion layer. The layer arrangement may be changed as described above also in the case of four layers or more. In order to improve color reproduction, a donor layer (CL) having an interlayer effect, which is different in spectral sensitivity distribution from the primary light-sensitive layers such as BL, GL and RL is preferably provided adjacent or close to the primary light-sensitive layers, as described in the specifications of U.S. Patents 4,663,271, 4,705,744, and 4,707,436, and JP-A-62-160448 and JP-A-63-89850. As described above, various layer structures and arrangements can be selected according to the purposes of the respective light-sensitive materials. A preferred silver halide contained in the light-sensitive material used in the present invention is silver bromoiodide, silver chloroiodide or silver bromochloroiodide each containing about 30 mole% or less of silver iodide. Particularly preferred is silver bromoiodide or silver bromochloroiodide each containing up to about 2 to about 10 mole% of silver iodide. The silver halide grains contained in a photographic emulsion may have a regular crystal structure, such as a cubic, octahedral or tetradecahedral structure, an irregular crystal structure, such as a spherical or tabular structure, a defective crystal structure such as a twinned crystal, or a composite form thereof. The silver halide may comprise fine grains having a grain size (defined as the diameter of a circle having the same area as the projected area of the grain and being a number average) of about 0.2 µm or less, or large grains having a grain size (defined as above) of up to about 10 µm. The silver halide emulsion may be either polydispersed or monodispersed.

Tabular grains having an aspect ratio of 3 or more can be used in the present invention. The tabular grains can readily be prepared by the methods described in Photographic Science and Engineering , written by Gutoff, vol. 14, pp. 248-257 (1970), U.S. Patents 4,434,226, 4,414,310, 4,433,048, and 4,439,520, and British Patent 2,112,157. The crystal structure may be uniform, or of a structure in which the halogen composition is different in the interior and the surface of the grains, or of a stratum structure. Further, silver halides of different compositions may be joined with an epitaxial junction. Also, it may be of a structure in which silver halide is joined with compounds other than silver halide, for example, silver rhodanide and lead oxide. Further, a mixture of grains having different crystal forms may be used. The above emulsion may be of any of a surface latent image type in which a latent image is formed primarily on the surface of a grain, an internal latent image type in which a latent image is formed primarily in the inside of the grain, or a type in which latent images are formed either on a surface or in the inside of the grain. The emulsion is required to be of a negative type. Of the emulsions of the internal latent image type, the emulsion may be a core/shell type internal latent image type emulsion described in JP-A-63-264740. A method for preparing this core/shell internal latent image type emulsion is described in JP-A-59-133542. The thickness of the shell of this emulsion can be varied according to the development processing which is to be employed and other parameters. It is preferably 3 to 40 nm, particularly preferably 5 to 20 nm. Usually, the silver halide emulsions are subjected to physical ripening, chemical ripening and spectral sensitization before using. The additives used in such processes are described in Research Disclosure , No. 17643, No. 18716 and No.307105, and the corresponding portions are summarized in the table shown later. In the light-sensitive material of the present invention, there can be mixed and used in the same layer, emulsions of two or more kinds each having at least one different characteristic of grain size, grain size distribution, halogen composition, grain form, or sensitivity in a light-sensitive silver halide emulsion. There can be preferably used silver halide grains in which the surfaces thereof are fogged, such as described in U.S. Patent 4,082,553, silver halide grains in which the insides thereof are fogged, such as described in U.S. Patent 4,626,498 and JP-A-59-214852, and colloidal silver for a light-sensitive silver halide emulsion and/or a substantially non-light-sensitive hydrophilic colloid layer. The silver halide grains in which the insides or surfaces thereof are fogged are defined by silver halide grains which can be uniformly (non-imagewise) developed regardless of an unexposed portion and an exposed portion in a light-sensitive material. The methods for preparing the silver halide grains in which the insides or surfaces thereof are fogged are described in U.S. Patent 4,626,498 and JP-A-59-214852. The silver halide constituting the inner nucleus of a core/shell type silver halide grain in which the inside thereof is fogged may be either of a uniform halogen composition or an ununiform halogen composition. Anyone of silver chloride, silver bromochloride, silver bromoiodide and silver bromochloroiodide can be used for the silver halide grains in which the insides or surfaces thereof are fogged. The grain size of these fogged silver halide grains is not specifically limited. The average grain size thereof is preferably 0.01 to 0.75 µm, particularly preferably 0.05 to 0.6 µm. Also, the grain form thereof is not specifically limited. It may be a regular grain or a polydispersed emulsion. It is preferably monodispersed (at least 95% by weight or by number of the silver halide grains have grain sizes falling within ±40% of an average grain size). In the present invention, non-light-sensitive fine grain silver halide is preferably used. Non-light-sensitive fine grain silver halide is silver halide fine grains which are not sensitized during imagewise exposing for obtaining a dye image and substantially not developed in the development processing thereof, and they are preferably not fogged in advance. The non-light-sensitive fine grain silver halide has a silver bromide content of 0 to 100 mole% and may contain silver chloride and/or silver iodide according to necessity. They contain preferably silver iodide of 0.5 to 10 mole%. The non-light-sensitive fine grain silver halide has an average grain size (the average value of the diameter of a circle corresponding to the projected area of a grain) of preferably 0.01 to 0.5 µm, more preferably 0.02 to 0.2 µm. The non-light-sensitive fine grain silver halide can be prepared by the same method as that for preparing conventional light-sensitive silver halide. In this case, the surfaces of the silver halide grains are required to be neither optically sensitized nor spectrally sensitized, provided that known stabilizers such as the triazole series, azaindene series, benzothiazolium series and mercapto series compounds and a zinc compound are preferably added to the grains in advance before adding the emulsion to a coating solution.

The solution having a fixing ability and the solution having a bleaching ability may be used independently of each other, or may be used as a bleach-fixing solution. In the case where the solution having the fixing ability and the solution having the bleaching ability are independently used, a waste solution is mainly the solution having the fixing ability, or the solution having the fixing ability is subjected to an inline silver recovery and the waste solution obtained after finishing the silver recovery is discharged. In addition to the inline silver recovery, all of the overflow is subjected to the silver recovery processing and the solution obtained after finishing the silver recovery may be regenerated and reused. In case of a bleach-fixing solution, the solution is subjected to the inline silver recovery and the waste solution obtained after finishing the silver recovery is discharged, and the overflow of the bleach-fixing solution is regenerated and reused. The above processing solution having a fixing ability can be subjected to silver recovery by a known method, and effective as a silver recovering method are an electrolysis method (described in French Patent 2,299,667), a settling method (described in JP-A-52-73037 and German Patent 2,331,220), an ion exchange method (described in JP-A-51-17114 and German Patent 2,548,237), and a metal substitution method (described in British Patent 1,353,805). The prosecution of these silver recovering methods from a tank solution in the line is preferred since rapid processing is further improved. In the present invention, the processing temperature in the desilvering process consisting of bleaching, bleach-fixing and fixing is 40 to 60°C, preferably 40 to 55°C, and the pH is 3.0 to 7.0, preferably 4.0 to 6.0. The processing time in the above desilvering process is preferably 4 minutes or less, more preferably 3 minutes or less. After finishing a processing step having a fixing ability, the silver halide color photographic material is usually subjected to a water washing processing step or a stabilization processing step. There can be used a simple processing method in which after finishing the processing in the solution having the fixing ability, a stabilization processing with a stabilizing solution is carried out without substantially carrying out washing. Various surface active agents can be incorporated into washing water used in the washing process and the stabilizing solution used in the stabilizing process for the purpose of preventing unevenness due to water drop in drying. Among them, a nonionic surface active agent is preferably used and in particular, an alkylphenolethylene oxide adduct is preferred. Octyl-, nonyl-, dodecyl-, and dinonylphenols are particularly preferred as the alkylphenol moiety in the adduct. The addition mole number of ethylene oxide in the adduct is particularly preferably 8 to 14. Further, a silicon series surface active agent having a defoaming effect is preferably used as well. Various bactericides and fungicides can be incorporated into the washing water and stabilizing solution in order to prevent the generation of water grime and mold grown on a light-sensitive material after processing. Further, various chelating agents are preferably incorporated into the washing water and the stabilizing solution. There can be enumerated as the preferred chelating agent, aminopolycarboxylic acids such as ethylenediaminetetracetic acid and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, organic phosphonic acids such as 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid, ethylenediaminetetracetic acid, and diethylenetriamine-N,N,N',N'-tetramethylenephosphonic acid, and the hydrolysis product of the maleic anhydride polymer described in EP-A-1345172. Further, the above preservatives which can be incorporated into the fixing solution and the bleach-fixing solution are preferably incorporated as well into the washing water and the stabilizing solution. In washing or stabilizing, processing by a multi-stage countercurrent system is preferred. The multi-stage countercurrent system which may be used can be applied to a transporting system which is provided with a conventional crossover rack. In order to improve washing efficiency, particularly preferred is a counter-current washing in a multi-chamber washing system in which a washing bath is divided into multi-chambers to squeeze in a solution at a bulkhead part, as described in JP-A-2-240651. There are needed for the number of the multi-chambers, two or more chambers, preferably three or more chambers, and more preferably four or more chambers. The washing efficiency is preferably increased with reverse osmosis equipment. The specification of the reverse osmosis equipment is preferably that water obtained after being transmitted through a reverse osmosis membrane is introduced into the following bath of a washing or stabilizing bath and a condensed solution is introduced into the preceding bath thereof, and most preferably that transmitted water is introduced into the final bath and the condensed solution is introduced into the front bath thereof. There can be used as a stabilizing solution used in a stabilizing process, a processing solution for stabilizing a dye image, for example, a solution containing an organic acid or having a buffer function with a pH of 3 to 6, and a solution containing aldehyde (for example, formalin and glutaraldehyde). The stabilizing solution can contain all compounds which can be added to washing water. In addition thereto, there can be used according to necessity, an ammonium compound such as ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfite, the metal compounds of Bi and Al, a fluorescent whitening agent, a hardener, and alkanolamine described in U.S. Patent 4,786,583. Further, the stabilizing solution contains compounds for stabilizing a dye image, for example, formalin, benzaldehydes such as m-hydroxybenzaldehyde, hexamethyleneteramine and the derivatives thereof, hexahydrotriazine and the derivatives thereof, an N-methylol compound such as dimethylolurea and N-methylolpyrazole, organic acid, and a pH buffer agent. The preferred addition amount of these compounds is 0.001 to 0.02 mole per liter of the stabilizing solution. The lower concentration of free aldehyde contained in the stabilizing solution is preferred since less formaldehyde gas is discharged. Preferred as a dye image stabilizer from this point of view are N-methylolazoles described in JP-A-3-318644, such as m-hydroxybenzaldehyde, hexamethylenetetramine, and N-methylolpyrazole, and azolylmethylamines described in JP-A-3-142708, such as N,N'-bis-(1,2,4-triazole-1-ylmethyl)piperazine. Further, in addition thereto, preferably incorporated according to necessity are an ammonium compound such as ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfite, the metal compounds of Bi and Al, a fluorescent whitening agent, a hardener, alkanolamine described in U.S. Patent 4,786,583, and the preservatives which can be incorporated into the above mentioned fixing solution and bleach-fixing solution. Of them, preferred are the sulfinic compounds (for example, benzenesulfinic acid, toluenesulfinic acid, and the sodium and potassium salts thereof) described in JP-A-1-231051. The addition amount thereof is preferably 1×10 -5 to 1×10 -3 mole, particularly preferably 3×10 -3 to 5×10 -4 mole per liter of the stabilizing solution. The pH value of the stabilizing solution is preferably 6 to 9, more preferably 6.5 to 8. The replenishing amount in the washing process and the stabilizing process is 1 to 50 times, preferably 1 to 20 times, and more preferably 1 to 7 times the carried-over amount from a preceding bath per unit area. The processing time is preferably 2 minutes and 30 seconds or less, more preferably 1 minute and 30 seconds or less in terms of the whole processing time in the washing process and/or the stabilizing process. City water can be used as water used in these washing process and stabilizing process. Preferably used is water which has been subjected to a deionization processing to provide the water with Ca and Mg ion concentrations of 5 mg/liter or less with an ion exchange resin, and water sterilized with a halogen and UV bactericidal lump. Then, a process in which the overflow solution from the washing process or the stabilizing process is flowed in a bath having a fixing ability, which is the preceding bath thereof, can be used to reduce the waste solution amount. In the processing according to the present invention, a suitable amount of water, or a correcting solution, or a processing replenishing solution is preferably added as replenishment to a processing solution in order to correct the concentration due to evaporation. The specific method for replenishing water is not specifically limited. Among them, preferred are the method in which a monitoring water bath is disposed independently from a bleaching bath to obtain the evaporated amount of water in the monitoring water bath and calculate the evaporated amount of water in the bleaching bath from this evaporated amount of water and water proportional to this evaporated amount is replenished to the bleaching bath, described in JP-A-1-254959 and JP-A-1-254960, and the evaporation correcting method in which a liquid level sensor and an overflow sensor are used, described in JP-A-3-248155, JP-A-3-249644, JP-A-3-249645, and JP-A-3-249646. City water may be used for water for correcting the evaporated amounts of the respective processing solutions. Preferably used are water used in the above washing process subjected to a deionization processing, and sterilized water. The area (an opening area) in which a solution contacts air is preferably as small as possible from the viewpoints of preventing the evaporation and deterioration of the solution. For example, based on the opening ratio obtained by dividing an opening area (cm 2 ) with the volume (cm 3 ) of the processing solution, the opening ratio is preferably 0.01 (cm -1 ) or less, more preferably 0.005 or less. In the present invention, the respective processing solutions are used at 10 to 50°C. Usually, a temperature of 33 to 38°C is standard. The processing is accelerated at an elevated temperature to shorten processing time, or on the contrary, the temperature can be lowered to achieve improvements in image quality and stability of the processing solution. The silver halide color photographic light-sensitive material of the present invention more easily demonstrates the effects and is effective in the case where it is applied to a film unit with a lens described in JP-B-2-32615 and JP-B-U-3-39784 (the term "JP-B-U" as used herein means an examined Japanese utility model publication).

After subjecting these samples to an even green color exposure, they were subjected to a red color imagewise exposure and then to the following color development. The value obtained by deducting a magenta density at the point of a cyan fog density from a magenta density at a cyan density (fog + 1.0) was obtained as the color turbidity of magenta in a cyan dye image. Similarly, after subjecting the samples to an even green color exposure, they were subjected to a blue color imagewise exposure to thereby obtain a magenta color turbidity in a yellow dye image. Samples 101 to 112 were slitted to a width of 35 mm to process them to a 135 size and 24 photographing exposures. Then, a 10 mm × 1 mm portion thereof were subjected to an X-ray irradiation and to the following color development at a linear velocity of 10 cm/min. The difference in the densities of a yellow color at the front exposure and end exposure of the X-ray irradiated portions was evaluated as a processing unevenness. Further, each of these samples was loaded in Minolta α-7700i and a 18% gray plate was photographed therewith at ISO 100, and 100 rolls were continuously processed. The respective samples were subjected to a sensitometry and a color developing exposure before and after the continuous processing to obtain a relative sensitivity change from the exposure providing a yellow density (fog + 0.2).
